Prerequisites

This process requires you to have a PayPal business account. You can check your current account status here: https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accountStatus

Steps

Once you’ve confirmed that you have a PayPal business account proceed with the steps below

Step 1: Get Started

Head over to https://developer.paypal.com/developer/applications . Make sure to switch to the “Live” mode as shown below and click on the “Create App” button

Step 2: Create the App

Name the app “fitbudd” and proceed by clicking on “Create App” as shown below. Please make sure that the app name is in lower case letter only

Step 3: Copy the required info

Once the app gets created you should see a page showing the “Live API Credentials”. On this page click on the “Show” button under “Secret” and copy these three things - PayPal Account (which is essentially your email), Client ID and Secret as highlighted in the image below. You’ll need to provide all three of these to FitBudd support team

Step 4: Connect the webhook

Webhook establishes a mode of connection through which Paypal sends payment events to Fitbudd. To configure the webhook, scroll down to the “Live Webhooks” section and click on “Add Webhook” button

In the form that shows up, under “Webhook URL” paste the unique webhook URL generated for you on the “Settings > Payment Service” of the FitBudd Dashboard

Thereafter, under the “Event types” section enable the “All Events” box. Scroll down further to the end of all the check boxes and click on “Save” to finalize the webhook.
